A BOLD PROPOSAL FOR A BETTER WAY OF GOVERNING THE USASame as the old one, except this one works.Our governing system, long considered the best in the world, worked well for a long time but no longer does and needs reexamination. Today, the best we can expect is a gridlocked, cantankerous government that creates more drama than results, offers no foreseeable solutions to America's grave challenges, perpetuates misery for the people, and will lead to America's eventual collapse as a stable civil society-either because of divisiveness, affordability challenges for everyday Americans, or the unforgiving national debt, not to mention the indignity of living in perpetual anxiety about the next elections. So what can the American people do?Framing the story through the lens of frustrated 21st-century Americans, author and management consultant Dinesh Shah explains why this happened and presents solutions to fix it. With these solutions in place, life in America would improve dramatically. It would: boost average Americans' prosperity; separately solve affordability challenges; strip the government's authority to take anything from your income, meaning no more income tax and no annual filing of income tax returns; keep the government from deficit spending and thereby prevent national debt; eliminate divisiveness and cantankerous government; eliminate the nonsensical drama of government shutdowns; cut down crime--enabling people to once again feel comfortable leaving their homes unlocked as they used to; prevent election buying and rigging; tackle fake news and activist, partisan judges; and even eliminate the dreaded mandatory jury duty.  "e;The New USA"e; may be the most beneficial set of ideas for America since the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. About the author: Dinesh Shah is a management consultant specializing in reengineering and transforming undesirable situations into dramatically improved "e;Future states."e; He holds a master's degree in industrial engineering from Stanford University, is a Deloitte alumnus, and has served as an adjunct faculty member at the University of San Francisco and the University of Phoenix.Publisher's Note: "e;The New USA"e; is a revised edition of the previously published "e;USA 2.0."e;  EXCERPTED FROM THE FOREWORDIn this essay, written when many in America are celebrating the nation's 250-year anniversary, Dinesh Shah assesses our system of governance-namely, the U.S. Constitution, the three branches of government, and the system of checks and balances. With his background in systems architecting, a system either works as planned and expected, or it doesn't. If it doesn't, it's the job of people like him to investigate why and find solutions. Not just fix it, but strive to make it significantly better. That's what he has attempted to achieve in his evaluation of our system of governance. Presented through a story, he tackles complex aspects of the U.S. Constitution and our system of governance in a way that is easy to understand and interesting for everyday readers, and equally challenging for scholars in the field. It is a bold, ambitious, and provocative undertaking, and a challenge to our elected officials and America's thought leaders. It will be interesting to see their responses. -Daniel Cooperman.
